Apologies if this has already been posted, but I don't have time to wade through all the posts on the other thread, but it appears we now know that the occupant is male, of medium height, with white skin and brown or red hair. Possibly from Thrace

This is how the infamous and long awaited “resident” of the Amphipolis Tomb looked like, according to the scientists’ estimations, based on the facts regarding the Greeks of his time (4th century BC). - See more at: http://greece.greekreporter.com/2014/11 ... GYWOr.dpuf
There was no official anouncement about the gender, the quote says that this is based on estimations on how Macedonians and people of Amphipolis looked like. Though Mrs Peristeri after they announced that they found the skeleton said for one more time that it's probably a General, thus hinting that the gender is male.
